Infinix Hot 5 Features

The Infinix Hot 5 is not really a massive upgrade from its predecessor. There are minor changes that I have listed below, do remember that being a budget smartphone there isn’t much we can expect from Infinix to include.

Cinema Surround Front Speakers

Powered by the DIRAC 3D Surround technology, the Infinix Hot 5 includes 2 superb speakers for an excellent music and movie watching experience. The DIRAC 3d sound widening technology ensures everyone around can hear media play. Since most brands including Samsung, Huawei, and Mi have developed excellent superior sound transmission, Infinix has followed the trend.

A Massive Battery

Tested to standby for well close to 2 days, the Infinix Hot 5 brings the similar 400mAH battery as in the Hot 4. The bigger change is the support the battery gets from the improved XOS Chameleon. The operating system constantly works to ensure the battery is preserved for more important tasks, minimizing screen timeouts and optimizing app usage.

The Hot 5 battery is quite capable of watching videos over WIFI, listening to music on the go, and playing video games over the HD ready 5.5 inch screen.

Decent Cameras

The Infinix Hot 5 offers an 8MPx back and a 5MPx front camera. Infinix still hasn’t adopted the dual cameras for this series, and will probably have in in their premium price series like the NOTE 4 or NOTE 5.

Both front and back cameras have been gifted a soft flash to ensure your photos are brighter and colors are deeper. The soft flash is a great feature to add to the Infinix Hot 5 selfie camera since the HOT 4 front camera was just bad. The back camera features 5 shooting modes allowing you to capture the best photos in both day and night times.

XOS Chameleon

The Infinix Hot 5 will also feature XOS Chameleon 2.2, not the latest but a great operating system with an improved UI from the Hot 4. XOS Chameleon 2.2 is known to improve battery life, supports camera, and optimizes the user experience by prioritizing apps. The OS determines which services are most used and launches those apps faster.

Infinix Hot 5 Specifications

Although not a sad thing, the Infinix Hot 5 does not come with either a new processor or performance specs.

You will have the same Cortex A53 CPU 1.3 GHz with a MALI GPU. The phone has 2GB of RAM ample for an everyday affordable phone. It also comes with 16GB built in ROM for storage and expandable memory up to 32GB.
